Fear Of A MiKrosVft Planet
,----[ Quote ]
| Now we can argue over whether or not Microsoft had an evil intent when they
| choose to shut down part of the codec industry, but regardless of the
| motives, competition is hurt by their decision to close media player to third
| party vendors. When I asked Marlin whether this would hurt his company or
| whether it was a dam in the river that would fork around the issue, he had
| conflicting thoughts.

| The Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1, unleashed in February,
| forces an undisclosed Firefox extension on Windows users,
| called “Microsoft .NET Framework Assistant 1.0″, and it does so without
| asking the users permission.
